2 And he gathered together all the leaders of Israel, with the priests and the Levites. 3 Now the Levites were numbered from the age of (A)thirty years and above; and the number of individual males was thirty-eight thousand. 4 Of these, twenty-four thousand were to (B)look after the work of the house of the Lord, six thousand were (C)officers and judges, 5 four thousand were gatekeepers, and four thousand (D)praised the Lord with musical instruments, (E)“which I made,” said David, “for giving praise.”
6 Also (F)David separated them into [a]divisions among the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
